South - and North - Korea

This was one of the most fascinating aspects of our trip so far. We took a tour from Seoul to the DMZ (demiliarized zone) which acts as a buffer between North and South Korea. You are escorted by US personnel, who are extremely strict about where and what you can film. This shot across the border to North Korea (yes, we did actually set foot in North Korea, heavily scrutinised by North and South Korean guards!) shows a group of North Koreans on their own tour.
